'Cabin Fever"
You're probably correct from a marketing standpoint, and I guess the people who put on the boat show that same day at the Javits Center also take the same approach. But no matter to me as it certainly brightened up an otherwise cold and boring winter weekend!! I'm now thinking that a bucket couldn't hold all the places I'd love to travel to, LOL!! Thanks for your comment!

'Interesting to compare experiences!'
Sarah, thanks for your visit! Even with the crowds, I think you'd enjoy the NYT Travel Show, as I'm sure I would enjoy the London Destinations Show too. It would have been nice to have complimentary show tickets for sure, but the cost for our tickets was negligible in the scheme of things especially for NYC!

A wonderful day out!
Thanks for your visit, Sarah. Although I thought the Snaefellsness Peninsula tour was the best in terms of sights, I thought the transportation was the absolute worst. We were relegated to sitting in the back the entire day; I am short and yet the seating was extremely cramped for me; the shock absorbers seemed to be non-existent and every time the minivan hit bad road conditions we were jostled to the point it was almost intolerable. I actually said something to the driver/guide about how bad it was and could he please take it easy in such cases, but he was curt and moreorless gave a "get over it" reply. By the end of the day we had really had enough! So hoping for better in Bulgaria.

Just stunning...
Thanks so much for the nice comments -- I really appreciate the feedback. I'm so glad you liked the Okelda carbonated spring photo!! I'd love to visit northern Iceland now as the scenery there is just incredible.

Snaefellsness.....
I admit the weather on the day of our Golden Circle Tour was frustrating because it was difficult to enjoy anything for long or get good photos. But Iceland is incredible and there is still so much more to see, especially in the northern portion of the country. Glad we had a reason to revisit Iceland thanks to the Euromeet and Regina & John were superb hosts.

Can't tell you how thrilled I was to see this special little island versus a museum!

Thanks, Malcolm! Indeed we did!

Thank you!
RENandDREW, thanks for your visit! Prior to our 1st visit to Havana, I had never heard of this cemetery either and I found it fascinating -- especially the beautiful memorials and the stories we were told. I was hoping to revisit it for more photos on our 2nd trip to Havana, but never made it there.

Thanks!
Thanks for your visit Malcolm! Glad we had the chance to visit Havana twice as they were both good visits. Now anxious to move on to new places.
